Flowmaster Super 44 Opinions
« on: February 14, 2011, 11:21:04 AM »
Ok, so I just bought a flowmaster Super 44 for my TJ, I'm running an intake and a stock cat...but my stock system from the cat back is pretty shot. I was going to do the Flowmaster with 2.5 inch pipe. So far, I really like the muffler. I've never read a single complaint about them on jeeps. I've heard soundclips of them on both 4.0s and 2.5 liter jeeps, and I've heard it in person mounted on a 4 cylinder tacoma. But before I drop a $200 dollars to have this thing welded together and chop up my old system I'd like to get some feedback... So what do you guys think?

I have never personally heard one on a jeep but I have one on my 00 denali and I love the sound. hope that helps at all.

Yeah, well I'm getting a pipe and flange on the cat output, so maybe I should just have them clamp it together so I can put something else on it if I don't like it. But if it's amazingly awesome then have them weld it. Is it really loud on the denalli?

Don't know about the 44, I have a 50 and it's loud but not to bad. The larger sized motors always sound better with the Flowmaster line of mufflers. The small motor ones don't have the right tone IMO.

It is pretty loud outside the truck but not in but then again it is dumped off behind the muffler with a turndown. I do agree that a flowmaster is designed more for a v8 IMO not a 4 banger.I will prolly be going with a banks catback on mine personally.

I don't know what the part number was, but it was a really small straight through off/center muffler. It was about ten percent smaller than the super 44.

I'm pretty sure it's the same magnaflow in the turbo city kit.

I don't think you will, the Jeep cam is already advanced (if i recall correctly) to help with the low end torque so i would think the impact would be minimal.

You know I gotta retract my prior statement about the flowmaster cause I got online last night and listened to mutiple different brands on youtube and the flowmaster 50 series two chamber muffler was the only one that I thought didn't sound like a honda. also I noticed that setups wth headers were a way deeper tone than just a muffler.

That's what I have without the header. Headers do make the tone a bit deeper.

Actually the dynomax sounds sick, it honestly sounds like a 6 or even a small 8...plus I have a noticeable torque pickup and getting up to speed on the highway doesn't give me headaches anymore. It's surprising quite for a straight through and crazy deep, i'd definitely recommend it.
